What visitors say

Delon

This is a lovely walk to do, the paths are sprawling and interesting yet you rarely get lost as everything is connected nicely even when you go far off the beaten track. Kids play area is nice, but is somewhat lacking compared to what it used to be. Plenty of areas to take photos, coffee and snacks van, free toilets and more. Only issue is that parking prices can be a little steep but you can easily overlook it due to the amount of woodland you get for the money Would recommend

A well laid out forestry commision site with nice walks and well maintained trails. It is well sign posted too. Only down side was the lights in the toilets powered by solar panels did not work. Otherwise a nice site.

Beautiful walk and quite close to the city. A peaceful woodland escape with walking trails and serene surroundings. West Walk in the Forest of Bere is perfect for a relaxing stroll, fresh air, and enjoying nature at its best.
